Live the Beach Life -Lovely Waterfront Home in Balboa Peninsula

I can’t say enough good things about this property! Owners live above and were super helpful with check in. Home was immaculate and had towels, beach toys like kayaks and bikes, a stocked kitchen, fire pit outside, located on a semi private beach area! Quick walk to Newport Beach and close to all the shopping and restaurants! We loved it! Highly recommend!

We loved staying at this beautiful property right on the bay. We have been renting vacation rentals in this area for the past 30+ years, and this house was definitely one of the very best. It was very well stocked with essentials including paper goods/plates which we have never had at any other house. The beds were super comfortable. The bedrooms had either fans or AC units which we have found necessary as the climate warms. The house had an abundance of beach towels, chairs, and toys. Everything was in walking distance. The beach is just a few minutes walk away, but we found it most relaxing to sit on the beach at the bay and watch the boats go by. We can’t wait to return again. Thank you for a wonderful time!!

Our family had the most amazing and relaxing vacation staying at this wonderful property. The property owners were so attentive and accommodating making sure we had everything we needed. The outdoor space was my favorite as it allowed us all to sit outside comfortably and enjoy the beautiful and relaxing views!

We are frequent renters on the Peninsula but this was out first time staying on the bay side. We loved our choice as well as this spacious sunny home with everything we could possibly need. We spent as much time, if not more on the beautiful patio wit the grill, table and fire pit as we did indoors and made good use of the perfect kyacking opportunities. Both the owner and the management person were friendly, gracious, and responsive. One of our best vacaitons to date!

This property was everything we hoped for and more. Ample space for our party of 8, (ages 9 to 72), lots of towels, dishes, etc. Everything was clean and tidy. The way this unit was set up made it easy for grandpa and grandma to have their own space with a door to escape the kids. And the outdoor shower meant the kids could rinse off before coming in. Everything was so well-thought-of. But the highlight was the patio overlooking a small beach and the bay. We spent most of the week in or near the water or on that amazing patio. Perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, or swimming. The distance around Bay Island was a perfect paddle. Vivian the property manager was outstanding. Welcoming and delightful, there was a slight tech glitch early on and she was in constant communication and worked to fix it immediately. This was probably the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had. We are already talking about when we’ll be back.

The location is very convenient to restaurants, coffee shops and the boat docks, and the view is wonderful. We were very comfortable in the VRBO - there were more than enough beds and plenty of room and kitchen supplies. We would love to come back!

We had such a wonderful week at this lovely beach home! We enjoyed all the area has to offer, from paddle boarding, kayaking, boat tours, walks, beach/bay time, to great dinners sitting around the outside patio table with fantastic view with our dear friends and family. The property manager, Vivian, was amazing to work with and thinks of everything a renter would want/need while on vacation. The location is perfect and the house is equipped with everything we needed and then some! I’m still dreaming of the amazing bay view right there in front of the house, sipping my morning coffee and watching the sailboats cruise on by. What a treasure! We can’t wait to return!

We had a lovely stay at this home right on the Bay w/ the Balboa Fun Zone & Balboa Island Ferry a short walk away. We enjoyed the home’s 2 kayaks, & it’s 2 beach bikes & we easily rented another bike. Access to several miles of the Balboa Peninsula beach & protected walkway is only a few blocks away from this home. The home was very well equipped & has a vintage charm. The owners & property manager were also super helpful.

Location was fabulous. House equipped with everything you could need from kayaks to beach chairs to toys-fantastic. We will be Beach next year.

Everything was perfect! We couldn’t have asked for a better time.
